I just saw the same documentary this week. It is an amazing doc. What I thought was interesting about the "circle" - pay attention to the moment when they are in the locker room at halftime. Who is coaching the team on adjustments? The players are; they are so busy talking amongst themselves about who to guard, how to guard them, where the openings in their opponents defenses are that the real coach doesn't have much more to add. It was a great example of a self-organizing group. When I watched that doc all I could think was: I would want my daughter to play for that guy. Wow – what a coincidence.
